Ridgewood Park, also known as Grauer's Ridgewood Park (Ridgewood Park I) or Wallace's Ridgewood Park (Ridgewood Park II), was a baseball ground located in Ridgewood, in the New York City borough of Queens. The grounds were used, on occasion, by the Brooklyn Bridegrooms baseball club of the American Association (AA), as their home park from 1886 to 1889 and of the Brooklyn Gladiators, also of the AA, for the 1890 season.
Today the location of the park, along Myrtle Avenue, is divided by Seneca Avenue, and the area has stores and residences.
Famous quotes containing the word park:
“Mrs. Mirvan says we are not to walk in [St. James’s] Park again next Sunday ... because there is better company in Kensington Gardens; but really, if you had seen how every body was dressed, you would not think that possible.”
—Frances Burney (1752–1840)
